Thanks for the patch, however:

It is already possible to use several AV scanners, also in a random, or
load-balancing fashion. The main "av_scanner" option is expanded each time the
"malware" condition is used, so you can use an acl variable (or any other
condition like time, cpu load, random values ...) to determine a suitable AV
scanner instance.

There's an example at the end of section 41.1:

Still, it doesn't provide any failover mechanism, does it?
